I have this sinking feeling hes the most low cost option and/or hes an Isaac Moses client and its a leverage play to get out of having to pay AOB his full contract payout

Is there really any difference between PSM shopping both Holbrook and Sandon to Newcastle?

Youre kidding right? Using the payout reduction as leverage to get another client into the same position is vastly different to representing 2 recruitment targets

Haha yeah Moses takes a lot of the heat but he's not the only powerful agent. PSM/the Orr bros negotiated Taumalolo's huge deal, DCE was with them when he worked the Titans to get the massive Manly contract, and it was them that got the Dylan Brown contract out of us.

You wanna get paid? Sign with Pacific Sports Management.

Getting a big deal for your client isnt exactly the same thing as what Moses gets up to

Theres a reason Uncle Nick wont deal with him

I’m going to put some $$$ on the Titans winning this weekend, they’re paying $2.10 so at least there will be some sort of emotional reward for me when they inevitably beat the Tigers and consign us to another spoon.

You might as well multi it with the Eels winning, that gets you to around $2.50.

Shall we save ourselves some time and start a “Sack TBA” thread so at least it’s already there and ready to go for when we’re back here having the same conversation midway through the 2026 season? Then we just update the thread title to whoever is the coach. That’ll save someone the time of creating a new thread in about 9 months from now.

Next year is a write off no matter who comes in. 10-15 is a pass mark.

Anything slightly positive in attack will be an improvement on this season. Take away the two games against NSW Cup Souffs and Penrith and it’s one of the worst attcking teams the NRL has seen.

TBF most of the time we were finishing on the right side of the W/L column though.
We were rarely convincing though and almost never beat the best sides during his tenure.

Imo we just never looked great under AOB aside from the 2023 run which was 95% Ponga. In fact, that run did more harm than good for the club based on the ridiculous decision to resign the coach when it was obvious it was nothing but an elite player in rare touch.

Nah we'll never need it again. We just fixed all of our issues!
